Amphibious Assaults

[Fjortisbarn]

I have been enjoying C.O.R.E for a long time, and first off I want so say thanks for a very good mod, I really appreciate your efforts!

But the actual reason I registrated was that I'm having a problem with Amphibious assaults. I'm playing as Germany, and when I'm about to invade Norway, they simply won't attack from the transports. Am I missing something? Some tech or anything else?

You need to have your ships on Amphibious Assault mission, you can't unload troops anymore to attack enemy provinces. That's a good feature from Armageddon 1.3 to prevent misuse of the earlier system.

Yeah, that was the problem. Thanks alot for your help!

Well, I'm playing as Japan and so I'm doin' pretty much amphibious assaults, and sometimes it happens that my ships, carrying my army, arrive to destination and just turn back to their navalbase!!!

Can't figure out why this happens: I use always a combined fleet with all kind of ships, along with some transports, I always use amphibious assault mission, and I tried to attack with every kind of weather/terrain... it's just that sometimes it doesn't work!!!!

Since I know that for EVERY apparent bug in HOI there IS a reason, I'm asking if anybody knows what it is...

Thanx a lot

The usual suspect is the min org/strength level for ALL ships in the amphib assualt fleet, which is set to 50% by default. If only 1 ship is below that level, the fleet returns home.

Hope that helps.

Also the transports tend to loose org while underway due to a low morale (maybe too low?) setting used. Researching some of the naval techs may help in this issue. AFAIR below 30% morale they'll loose org while at sea.

Yep
there was actually ONE stupid ship (NAV I believe) out of 75 which had org less than 3 or 4
I scrapped it and everything went ok!

thanx a lot guys
